An Explanatlon q Their Oecurron0o
which II worthy o. Notice.
Rev. Mr.. Metcalfe. in his book on
Iceland, gives an account Of the gey-
scrs Of that country. and adds an ex-
PLANTATION Of their occurrence which is
worthy OF notice. He pitched his tent
within twenty yards Of the Great Gey-
ser. but IS that was only bubbling and
boiling, without an exposion to send
up column Of water. he removed to :
smaller spring called the Strokr.
80 we proceed" says he. TO this
spring. which is one hundred PAGES
south Of the Great Geyser. and. al
though It has no cone. but rises from
the fiat, is the more picturesque Of the
two. Forthwith we collect handfuls Of
turf and stones. and throw them into
the Strokr's pipe; but nothing seemed
TO move him. The waters below
grunted and snarled like baited
badger. but were not 70 be drawn.
.''ln the sulks,' said l. laughingly.
as stood with my back to the oriticc.
"'Here he comes!' shrieked one Of
the party. as l heard hiss like q
rocket disengaging itself from its
stick. Rush for your lief and rush l
did; but, my foot catching. down !
fell.
''.Boilcd alive was my instantan-
eous thought The seething waters
will descend and overwhclm me- And
50 they would have done had not the
wind been from my side Of the spout,
and carried the waters in the other d.
rection. What . sight! A column Of
turbid water. never ending, still begin
mig. darts into the air At least one
hundred feet, bearing along with Il all
the unwholesome food with which We
had been loading the creatures nav.
The physical reason for the discharge,
which II feature common to several
Of the Icelandic hot springs, Is pretty
we'll understood. The pipe. which g
forty-eight feet deep. diminishes from
six feet, its breath At the top. 70 eleven
inches nt the bottom. The injected
mass Of stones and other material acts
like the shutting Of : safety-valve; the
steam has not q proper vent; Il collects
rapidly In the subterranean chamber

on the present occasion, by beautiful

A DANGEROUS SICKNESS.
Cases Of Typhoid or Typhus Fever In
the City.

A dangerous sickness is prevailing in the
Melaugh block, on the corner of Centre and
Fore streets, and in the old Printers Ex-
change. The people living in the vicinity
are greatly excited by the reports that the
sick persons are suffering from either ship
fever or cholera.
Mr.. Geo. c. Burgess, secretary OF the
Board of Health, stated last evening in re-
gard to the cases, that steamer arrived in
Boston last week with q number of passen-
gers, who, two days after leaving the vessel
were taken sick in that city. Others of the
passengers went elsewhere, and some of
them came to Portland. Fourteen cases are
in existence here. One of the patients is at
the Greeley Hospital The patients show
some of the symptoms Of typhoid fever.
They are carefully watched by DIR. King, the
city physician, and two other physicians.
Many of the patients elsewhere have recoy-
cred their health and gone about their bust
ness. There are no symptoms Of cholera
character. 1t is thought the sickness may
have resulted from water drank on the YES
sell
DIR. King said that the sickness is evident
ly either typhoid or typhus fever. Ship fe-
yer is typhus fever. As yet the disease has
not developed sufficiently for the physicians
to determine whether it is typhoid or typhus
fever. 1t is known to be contagious, how
ever, and every precaution has been taken
to prevent its spread. DR.. King has given
notice to the Board of Health of the exist
ence Of the cases. None of the cases have
resulted fatally, but the patients are very
weak

Attenanted Suicide

Thursday night Allen Simmons of Knight
vile, aged eighteen, attempted suicide. Sim
mons had been paying attention to young
woman in the village for some time and the
gentleman at whose house she worked OBJ
jected to Simmons because he had no regular
employment, but without effect Later she
worked in another family and, becoming
better acquainted with the villagers, she APP
parently weakened" on Simmons. A gem
teman friend accompanied the young wo-
man home from house where she had been
calling Thursday evening. Simmons follow
ed them and near the mill-brook they heard
a pistol shot. They ran back and found him
lying on the ground groaning, with the blood
trickling from his head. He was carried to
his house with the assistance of several per-
sonswho were attracted by the noise ana
DR.. Thombs called. When the latter came
1t was found that Simmons wound was not
serious, he having shot off the lower Dor
ton of one of his ears.
